Labor has made it ‘significantly less likely’ to win the next election6:37

The Herald Sun’s Political Editor James Campbell says Labor’s decision to vote for the medical evacuation bill will make it ‘significantly less likely’ to win the next election.
Labor and the crossbench on Tuesday combined to push the controversial medivac bill through the House of Representatives after several amendments from the Opposition, which will now go to the Senate on Wednesday for a final vote before becoming law.
Whether it passes the upper house hinges on Independent Senator Derryn Hinch, who holds the swing vote for the legislation.
Mr Campbell has told Sky News the border security debate is a ‘killer’ for Labor within the Australian electorate.
